WEDNESDAY EVENING, JANUARY 90.
JusrrF1AgLE HoM1c1pE.-Darius w. Parks,


UNSUITABLE HoM1CIDE-Darius w. Parks,
OF Trumbull county, Ohio. has been pardon
ed by the governor. He was sent to the
peniteptiary in 1880 for murder in the
second degree. In August of that year
Parks killed one John Mcdonald. The
governor saws: "The facts, as they are con
ceded and agreed TO be, make this case in
which it is very clearly and impera;ive!y
the duty of the governor to grant PARDON.
Prior TO the homicide Parks had always sus-
tanned good reputation. He was peace
able and industrious man. No charge VI
any kind had ever been preferred against
him. At the time of the homicide ne was
living in the outskirts of the town CT Mics.
As he approached his home on MS way from
his work at noon-time he heard tue screams
of his wife. Running quickly into tne
house. he found there large brutal LOOKING
man assauting his wife. Neither ne nor
his wife had ever seen the man before.
PARKS grabbed his gun, which hung on the
wall, and with it drove the man from his
wife and out the house. He refraiaed
shooting for fear he might kill his wife, and
from a desire TO avoid bloodshed if possible
AS soon as the man was gone from the
house Parks went to the assistance OF MS
wife, but, while aiding her TO recover from
the assault upon her. Mcdonald suddenly
returned. threatening violence TO Parks and
that he would repeat the assault on Mrs
Parks at the first opportunity. Thereupoin
Parks picks ed up his gun aud shot ana Klil-
ed Mcdonald. In the opinion of the gov
ernor there never was more Justlhaoie
homicide and the man should never nave
been convicted"

The GAZETTE is now the oldest paper ~
the State, and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY SEVEN YEARS ofits existence. In
its columns has always been found mirror
of passing events, and the careful chroni-
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim. It is always
welcomed in the household, whlo in the
counting room and workshop it has become
invaluable.
The GAZETTE has better facilities for OBJ
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it is SO close
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis.
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our Own domain as well as
from every part of the babitabIo globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer.
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York, Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres.
The local department furnishes full and
complete history of everything that occurs
in and near the city, and this feature will
as ever, receive careful attention.
The GAzErrE's circulation is steadily il.
creasing, especially among people who con
suit its advertising columns before purchas'
ing. That this is seIf-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi.
tion-nearly as large as the daily--is sent
all oyer this section Of country three tines
a week, and is read by thousands, most Of
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of adj
vertising in the GAZETTE are, therefore, APP
parent.
